OTAGO CHALLENGE NOT IN ORDER r ln view of the decision of the Otago laoht and Motor Boat Association not to send forward a challenge for the Cornwell Cup this message was brought under the notice of the president (Mr J.

Mr Paul says he understands that a challenge was forwarded by the North-East Harbour Boating Club but as challenges can only bo made by the recognised associations where such exist, the challenge is not in.order. The rule bearing on the matter reads aafolv™r. Ia Pfk Port where there is a Yacht Association representing boating clubs the challenge must be made by the association and all other things to he done by the challenging body should be done by or through such association. Where there is no such, association the challenge may be made by recognised clubs representing the port.” 1
